Manchester City are 7-for-7 and six points clear, though they needed a 3-2 win over Ipswich that left Erling Haaland with a foot concern. Brighton are the early surprise, and Tottenham and Bournemouth sit bottom.
Seven wins from seven put Manchester City six points clear of Arsenal, who have a game in hand. Haaland's brace against Ipswich came with a foot injury concern, and the only real threat to City's run may be his fitness.
Third place on 13 points, with a league-best +13 goal difference. Brighton have outscored everyone's expectations, and Crystal Palace visit next in the M23 derby.
